I'm not really up to speed with the ins and outs of the upgrade program but was it not expected to close reservations?
Got a tip for us?

I thought it was midnight tomorrow, and that 06:46am Thursday morning would be the last stock replenishing and therefore chance to get a phone you want on launch day.
Lo and behold, this morning's 06:46 was the last one.

Preordered an iPhone 7+ 32GB in matte black. My delivery address didn't have my county, so added that and instantly my estimated delivery dropped from 27-29 to 20-22.
Thanks so much whoever noticed this first
although I expect the phone probably would've come then anyway, it's just making the app show the actual delivery date now.Who on earth is ordering an iPhone 7 from 'Very'... I mean.. really?! Just order from Apple directly!

I think most people who ordered from Very (myself included) had it down as a long-shot backup just in case it actually worked out. I feel bad for those who subsequently believed their Very ETAs - despite the warnings - and cancelled their 'not all that bad' Apple delivery dates.
I ordered from Very on a Visa credit card which was never charged & cancelled my order today when the dates went south.

Tomorrow: Thursday will be a crucial day for most of us... I currently have a 27-29 September delivery for my 7 Plus 256gb Black iPhone (which is a PROPER storage capacity, unlike most of you weirdos that have 32 gb... ). Unlikely to arrive tomorrow, EVEN though i had confirmation at 8:03AM! Clearly they are in short supply. I expect to receive my iPhone next week... Earliest. I urge everyone else to be patient. If you got in early, expect to have a bump to your shipment soon! ... Let us pray...

FREAKISH - this just happened to me too. Was just having a last look at my Apple order status and added my County to the missing field, boom - moved up to 20-22. WTF?
Really you need it to be explained to you??? Apple had such little stock if any that sold out in minutes, so that means people could not order from Apple direct. Word got round that Very were showing stock available for delivery on 16th, obviously it now transpires Very never had the stock in the first place but it isn't rocket science to work out why people took a punt elsewhere.
Yeah it's weird. I thought there'd be a slight delay as to whether the delivery date will move, but it happened straight away.
Can't really complain haha!!
Agreed, but last year they had 2 weeks before announcement, until they launched. This year, they only alowed for one week until launch. Why is beyond me...
True!
Nope 7+ in gold
Cool!
Oh yes because you can't be a bloke and get a gold phone, jeez that's all girly and stuff. You must remember it is fundamentally inferior to be a woman and therefore associate with anything remotely associated with the female human.

Bloody hell, it's 2016.
West Sussex.
Are you definitely changing your delivery address and not billing address?
Could always try updating your name. For example if you put Tom, change it to Thomas. Don't know if that'd work, but might be worth a shot.
Same phone as you exactly. Just added my county to the shipping address, I was so worried it would add a delay, but after you said this I had to try it... IT WORKED! 20th!
but this makes me wonder why Apple didn't just update the delivery date anyway? Odd behaviour by their status software[doublepost=1473896618][/doublepost]Francis did this.
Yorkshire, so it's not a geo thing if that's Manchester / West Sussex / Yorkshire.
May sound odd but if you can't get one, I have a 256GB Gold Plus reserved for Meadowhall that I no longer need as I managed to order the 128GB this morning! Its all yours if you'd like it?

I've been watching this thread since pre order. Did the same thing and added my county to the shipping address and my plus 128gb black moved forward delivery date. How bizarre? But amazing!
I have a plus 128 in black from Very still showing delivery for this Saturday. Money has also been taken
I'm actually so relieved! I would have missed the delivery if it was the 27th and wouldn't have been able to get my phone for a couple of weeks AFTER it was delivered!

I don't even see where the missing field
Is or how to change it. I don't like fiddling with the order.
Everything has gone nuts tonight, I'm never going to sleep again.
